Ok hear me out. I think it would actually be hard to get aggressive with calamandra here even as player 1. So if I’m sitting back, why not collect a fat check from rich earth? Yeah its probably bad lol.

Don’t want to play crashbomber because its a kidnapping target. Hero’s hall is incase they break my tech 2 and leave quince alive but I need another hero’s spells (like now).

Not my ideal choice, but having fencer kill a tech building means they get her back, which I really didn’t want. Even if they have a big grounded guide+fencer turn I’m hoping my econ advantage will still put this in my favor.
Good catch and I miswrote his level. Doesn’t change anythin. I was wondering why he was maxed when I planned the turn in my head but not in the game lol.
Killing Drakk is the best I have left, I don’t like my chances to survive the next two turns, so I’ll pack it in for this tourney. GG WP @rathyAro !, I gambled on an early t2 and badly whiffed that turn 3 draw. @zango x me out bro
Good game, well played! You didn’t take long at all despite the road trip.
I see you teched maestro before nimble fencer. What was the rationale on this? I would think just teching the maestros next turn would give you the same result, but with an option to play fencer on your turn 3 and/or 4. The earliest you could play maestro is turn 5 right?
Edit: Ah nevermind on the above, you could have maestro’s on turn 4. That would have been rough for sure.
On a side not, have you tried codex 2e yet? I’m curious to hear thoughts on it from some of the forum vets.
Yeah I figured the big body on turn 4 would have been a strong wall to lock you down from. Maybe a bad plan, obviously risky and didn’t work hehe
I have not tried it yet, not a Patron, was waiting around for it to develop some more before really getting into it. Heard a few things that sound kinda interesting but afraid I don’t have much thoughts on it otherwise!
